We had a lovely time this afternoon sharing books with Class 1.

In maths this week Year 1 are looking at Place Value with 100. Today we made our own number lines and used them to count forwards and backwards. 
 

Reception enjoyed coming into Class 2 for some more transition time today. We did a maths lesson where we built numbers on the tens frame and counted objects within 10. We then had a go at recording our answers. 
 

Today we released our butterflies in the school vegetable garden.

They were reluctant to leave us and one even stopped for a rest before it flew off to the bushes. 
 

This week we have continued our persuasive writing about Sicily.

To help us find some descriptive words for the food, we sampled some classic Italian food.

Mozzarella, Tomato and Basil salad

Olives and breadsticks

Tiramisu

All were met with great reactions and lots of us were brave…

In history class 2 have have been learning about the life of Queen Victoria's God Daughter Sarah Forbes Bonetta who was rescued from slavery and brought to England. Today we were thinking about her significance in British history and writing down our ideas. 

In maths today Year 1 have been using concrete resources to partition two digit numbers into tens and ones. 
 

In Class 4 we having been creating oil pastel drawings of Van Gogh’s ‘Starry’ night.

I think they are amazing- what do you think?

Lots of excitement in English today, two of our butterflies emerged from their chrysalises during the lesson.

We are excited to see the other three emerge.

Our lettuce has been grown from seed and today was used for our school dinners. Yummy!
